Rich and Shona might be able to give you some pointers on the food-front, not vegan but both veggie.
Then again they might have just stuffed their face with cake the whole way round...

Thanks. I'll do my research for the larger towns on the route, and try to get my timings right to resupply there. Also found https://tentmeals.co.uk/collections/main-meals which look great, high energy, low weight. I could carry a hobo stove and tiny bottle of meths. Not much extra weight.

Thanks!
Yep, it's official, I'm on for HTR550, and wow, the start list is brutal, some super strong riders in there with a lot of experience. I've got my work cut out for me, and being vegan in scotland is going to be fun.
Reckon I can carry 5 days of food? Probably. My main tactic is to not talk to anyone Scottish on the whole race (except other racers). That way, I don't stop in towns unless absolutely necessary.
